Crews scour Madeleine McCann search site
- 10 years ago
The search continues for a little girl who vanished in Portugal years ago.
Police scour this scrubland for a third day, just a few blocks away from the apartment where Madelaine McCann disappeared in 2007.
Her whereabouts remain a mystery -- after she disappeared without a trace from her family's holiday apartment in Praia da Luz while her parents dined with friends at a nearby restaurant.
At the request of Scotland Yard, the search has opened up again.
Two tents were assembled on Wednesday at a specific portion of land marked by police in the last 24 hours. Investigators took ground samples here, but they were not immediately available to comment on the purpose of the tents.
Media reports say the search could involve ground penetrating radar equipment and excavation machines later in the week.
